Two vendors of Configure Price Quote (CPQ) solutions in the Microsoft Dynamics 365 ecosystem, Experlogix and e-Con Solutions, have merged. The combined firm will continue to develop, sell, and support both solutions, they said in a statement.
The combined firm will serve an existing customer base of 500, with 100 employees. One reason for the merger, according to an announcement, was their respective geographic concentrations. Their announcement stated:

The merger will significantly expand and complement the combined organization’s global reach and catapult it to its next stage of growth as a dominant CPQ solution provider.
Investment firm Featheringill Capital bought a majority share of Experlogix in 2019.
